I came across mention of IMAPSync and Larch as tools to move emails out of Gmail to a new email account. Does anyone have any experience using these?

I have a family’s worth of email gmail accounts all of which are running out of space and will need to be moved to a new email provider. They would of course all like to keep their historical sent and recieved emails.

    Many email providers have an inbuilt tool that will handle all this for you.

    Fastmail, for example. I switched to them 4-5 years ago, and the process of migrating over a decades worth of mail was straightforward and pretty quick.

      Cheers. Ill have a look . I suspect we will just be using a hosting providers email rather than dedicated email service. (Ideally Id like to run own email server but I have heard that can be a real struggle to keep emails being delivered)
